Hello! 👋


I’m Thea, with over a decade of industry experience I have had the pleasure of collaborating with diverse studios and clients globally, including having worked full-time with the talented team at Buck in New York for over 4+ years.

My passion lies within creating bold, minimal, yet expressive illustrations and animations that explore themes of human connection, touch, and quiet moments. I enjoy blending soft surrealist human forms with delicate linework to craft pieces that feel both intimate and evocative.


Available for commissions and collaborations.

Hello! 👋

Thea Glad, an illustrator and animator currently living in Oslo, Norway.

The New Yorker Festival

Studio Buck
Role direction, concept, design & animation

Due to Covid, 2020 was the first time The New Yorker Festival took things fully viritual.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Mercy Lomelin to create a design system and anthem film to kick off this storied event, as well as a graphics package used during the livestreams.





With this being a very NYC-centric event, we had to consider in detail what makes New York the city the cultural hotspot that it is - including internal discussions of what makes a bagel a ‘proper nyc bagel’. (capers do go on salmon & cream cheese bagels!)

Our approach to a minimalist painterly style lended itself well with a formal presentation as well as blending wonderfully with a more playful and fluid side.
